$XRP Tops List of Crypto Assets Taken in Bitget Hack. Bitget...

Bitget disclosed a security breach affecting approximately $351.6 million on September 24, 2026.
A subsequent breakdown from Lookonchain identified 102.93 million XRP worth $157.48 million as the largest component of the stolen assets.
CEO Gracy Chen said Bitget detected unauthorized transfers at 18:31 UTC and immediately activated its emergency response protocols. The exchange temporarily suspended withdrawals pending a security review.
Lookonchain’s asset breakdown listed nine cryptocurrencies and tokens, including XRP, ETH, stablecoins, and tokenized gold:

Lookonchain reported that the attacker had swapped most of the stolen assets on Ethereum-compatible networks into 67,982 ETH, valued at approximately $183 million. The conversion figure concerns assets on those networks, rather than establishing that the stolen XRP was exchanged for ETH.
Arkham’s portfolio snapshot grouped 22 addresses under its “Bitget Hacker” label, with combined holdings valued at approximately $188.93 million. Alongside the ETH balance, it listed roughly 5,897 BNB worth $4.58 million and 495.625 wrapped ETH worth $1.33 million. Those figures describe tracked holdings at the snapshot, not an additional loss on top of the original theft.
